Daftmill 2013 Summer Batch 70cl

Daftmill Distillery is situated near Cupar in Fife, making it one of just seventeen Lowland distilleries currently producing whisky, however with at least 6 more under construction, the Lowland region is the fastest growing region in Scotland.

Unique in amongst the region, lies Daftmill, a true farm distillery. All the barley used for production is farmed on the estate. The whisky is all distilled by Francis and Ian Cuthbert in the farm off season; two months in summer and two months in winter – this is a very traditional way of running a distillery that hasn’t been seen in Scotland since the 1800s.

The barley variety Concerto was grown in the south fields and harvested on the 2nd and 3rd of September of 2011, and then dried and stored on the farm to be malted in Alloa during the spring of 2012. 

14 first-fill, ex bourbon barrels were used in this release. matured on the upper level of the dunnage warehouse.
